Phonics Poem for this story:
Nature’s Creatures
What can we discover outdoors?
What creatures can we see?
A flock of crows, a little black ant-
They interest me.
A bluebird nest, a screeching gray owl,
A pond with croaking frogs.
Snakes that like to sun themselves.
Stretched out like frogs.

Where Can We Turn?
When we think of new things
That we wish to learn,
We must search for answers.
Where can we turn?
We can watch as people
Show us what we do.
We can check out books with facts and
Read them through and through.

Phonics Poem for this story:
Nature’s Creatures
What can we discover outdoors?
What creatures can we see?
A flock of crows, a little black ant-
They interest me.
A bluebird nest, a screeching gray owl,
A pond with croaking frogs.
Snakes that like to sun themselves.
Stretched out like frogs.

Where Can We Turn?
When we think of new things
That we wish to learn,
We must search for answers.
Where can we turn?
We can watch as people
Show us what we do.
We can check out books with facts and
Read them through and through.

Phonics Poem for this story:
Nature’s Creatures
What can we discover outdoors?
What creatures can we see?
A flock of crows, a little black ant-
They interest me.
A bluebird nest, a screeching gray owl,
A pond with croaking frogs.
Snakes that like to sun themselves.
Stretched out like frogs.

Where Can We Turn?
When we think of new things
That we wish to learn,
We must search for answers.
Where can we turn?
We can watch as people
Show us what we do.
We can check out books with facts and
Read them through and through.

This week's Phonic's Poem...
Exploring the Desert
We hiked in the desert,
the sun was so bright.
We looked all around at
each wonderful sight.
A hawk that was soaring,
each wing like a sail.
A rattlesnake sunning
and shaking its tail.
A big old jack rabbit,
hopped over the ground.
A huge tortoise moved,
without making a sound.
A desert seems empty,
but open your eyes.
Each sand dune you come to
has a surprise. Online Game: http://www.freidalewis.com/

Phonics Poem for this story:
Nature’s Creatures
What can we discover outdoors?
What creatures can we see?
A flock of crows, a little black ant-
They interest me.
A bluebird nest, a screeching gray owl,
A pond with croaking frogs.
Snakes that like to sun themselves.
Stretched out like frogs.
